Grooming and Hygiene

[mclaincausey]

Damn Swiss and their awesomeness. These feckin blades are nuts. I finally swapped one out after about a month of daily use. It was still working too.

Tres I think Dermologica is entirely hypoallergenic. Everything I've used of theirs is great, they have a men's line but none of it carries a feminine scent either way.

Maybe someday we can do splits for cologne ahahahaha. One can only wish for now

[natehate]

grabbed some new stuff today to try out.
imperial's preshave oil, bergamot after shave, classic pomade and glycerin soap
as well as the new york shaving company's shaving cream.
really digging the smell of this pomade. looking forward to trying it out
after shave smells nice and clean too

Didn't see this until now. Thanks, a lot.

Fo' sho', please share your thoughts if you try it.  Jack Black is awesome too but I'm not sure about hypoallergenic.

Any of you bastards also have dry skin?.. Winter is coming and all this King slaying has me hands in a fragile state… I'm trying bathoils (I hàte taking baths though), and I've bought a big jar of natty udder cream.

At work, as soon as it gets colder, the women at work are cold... All of 'm... I'm talking frigide penguin feckin cold... They're wearing overcoats and fleece pullovers and all that shit whilst I'm finally feeling fine working in a tee... Next of course is turning on the heaters... Dry, warm air plus using your hands all day and constantly going from a cool area (outside temp) to a warm area (inside store) really fucks with my skin...

Any other tips?..

i've very dry skin & have been confused with ashy larry on several occasions.

sunflower or olive oil work great & are less expensive compared to many lotions offered on the market, oh & you can use them to toss a salad, hahahaahahaha

but i'm serious

I use this. Works well for me. I'm no ashy Larry but I'm from Florida and this dry Northeastern winterland weather makes me feel like shaved Parmesan.

This is my favorite. I've tried a bunch of expensive stuff, but I keep coming back to this. This stuff lasts through hand washing which is a huge plus for me. I wash my hands constantly in the kitchen, and compound that with winter air, and my hands become a cracked, bleeding mess.

Excellent - I'll be ordering that soon… Exactly what I need: for it to last through handwashes.

Do you need to re-apply it during the day or not?..

[seawolf]

Usually only once during the day, and once before bed. Seems to be enough.  It's not greasy, it absorbs quickly, and it's unscented. Perfect.

Two Aveeno handream 75 ml bottles ordered for 13 € postage inc, and 6 bars of Dr Bronner's peppermint soap for in the shower for 9 €.

All set.

[Arabit]

Ordered some Amouage samples! Can't wait weeeeee

I'm interested to hear how the Aveeno works for you.

[Seul]

They seem to have stuff for the rest of the body as well… Need something for arms and face. Their anti-eczeema stuff seems cool... But you wouldn't have any experience with that, right?..

Just FYI - my wife uses Dermalogica for a lot of her lotions and potions….I guess the lady at the beauty shop turned her on to DermaDoctor which is basically the same stuff at 2/3 the price. So now she uses a combination of the two.

Personally - the products I like the best are the Lush shampoo bars (so awesome), my Firehouse moustache wax, and my BeardBrand beard oil.
